More than just something that sits on your shelf as a display, this rocket can actually be launched in the air. The reason the Saturn 1B ranks on top of everyone's favorite is because it includes the eight fuel tanks in a big cluster, the unique transition section that conforms to the eight tank tubes, and eight fins - twice as many as any other NASA rocket. Plus it has lots of corrugations that give the rocket lots of surface texture. Finally, it has an elaborate paint pattern that makes it unique and eye appealing. This kit features: Highly detailed injection-molded Apollo Capsule, engine nozzles and transition section that fits over the 8 fuel tank tubes. Meticulously detailed vacuum form wraps for the booster thrust structure, Interstage, and 2nd stage Eye-popping detailed embossed wrap for the transition of the 2nd stage to the Service Module Special "raised ink" wrap for the Service Module portion to bring out the raised panel lines on the rocket Five-color water-slide decals. Includes markings for all Saturn 1B missions flown by NASA, including Skylab Four hours of video instruction. These not only show where to place the parts, but how-to put them together correctly.
